Review: Terrible - Paid for a new Pimax crystal light and received a used faulty one, the plastic lense covers were just stuck onto a bubble wrap bag and what I thought were scratches on the left lenses were grease smear marks ( see photo's) the controllers were dead on arrival but I understand they might have needed charging but after an hour only the right controller would charge and the left one was faulty. I did start the headset just to see what all the fuss was about regarding pimax headsets and the headset is so uncomfortable and bulky, the cable is so heavy it pulls you head to the left and puts pressure on your neck , the spherical lenses make you feel dizzy and I really do not like them and compared to the Quest 3 they simply are not as good.... period!!! And for more than twice the price!! The screen door IS visible and with the lenses not being that good it actually degrades the image. I did understand before I bought the Pimax that there has been some Quality control issues and was like a lottery if you was sent a new working headset and that's why I bought from desertcart as back up but I still ended up with a second hand headset and for all that money!!!!! Disgusting service and I cannot recommend that you use Pimax for your next Vr headset. Review: Fantastic for PCVR, I'm glad I chose the PIMAX Crystal Light over the Quest 3. - I already have 700hrs in Elite Dangerous but playing in VR with this headset was like a massive update to the game and a true WOW experience! There are no compression artifacts to break emersion - when you look into the black of space you don't see blotches or pixelation. However, even with local dimming maxed the HUD and ship do have some glow around them in space -- only a significantly more expensive OLED display can eliminate that. The glow is not distracting for me and I dismiss it as a slight condensation/dirt effect on a car windscreen in real-life. The audio quality is ok for gaming but it is a bit quiet even at maximum. I plugged in some cheap wired ear-buds for a big improvement and even more emersion. The built in microphone seems to work well with Voice Attack. The optical quality is very good indeed, the FOV seem big and the sweet spot is also quite big. There is some blurring right at the very edge of the display but its not a real issue (I'm playing a game not looking at pictures!). Even though the sweet spot is big wearing glasses means it can be tricky to setup the ideal position each time without chromatic aberration. I can wear vari-focal glasses comfortably with this headset but I've now switched to clip-in lens from VR Optician. Switching to clip-in lens greatly improved my comfort, image contrast and clarity over the whole screen and there is no fiddling needed to get the best visuals. The lens prescription needs to be for a 1m focus. With my face shape I needed the thicker foam face plate. This is my first VR headset so I didn't know what to expect. When I wear glasses in real life everything I look at is framed by my glasses (everything outside the frame is blurred of course) . With this setup I have the same wide FOV except things outside the frame are black. Its a bit like wearing a scuba facemask with a large rounded-rectangular window. Its not like using binoculars. Its very comfortable to wear but I did add a top strap for improved support. If you can run the headset at full-resolution it gives fantastic visuals. I use the PIMAX Crystal Light with an AMD 5800X3D and Radeon 7900xt. In ED, tweaking visuals with FSR and a mix of ultra, high and medium quality settings I get a steady 50+fps in stations and a steady 70+ in space. Alternatively I can drop resolution in Steam VR to 68% and max everything to ultra. But for me the best experience is with full resolution. ## Features - [Two-Step Payment Plan] This product requires payment in two parts: Pay an upfront fee on desertcart β†’ Use for 14 days β†’ complete a one-time payment of Β£207 in Pimax Play. - [Steam VR Compatibility] Engineered to tackle the most demanding flight and racing sims, delivering high-fidelity graphics for titles like Microsoft Flight Simulator and iRacing.

My headset is defective and will randomly show a pink staticy screen for a second and then show a blank screen (or extremely dim, I can see like shadows..) until the Pimax Play software is restarted - turning the headset on/off again doesn't fix it. 2. The tracking is appalling and just judders all over the place, lags.. It'll be fine for a minute or two then go completely unplayable. This seems to be caused by the Pimax Play software which uses up all of my CPU - a 5700x3D. Not the best around but it's still pretty good. I did some research to try and fix this and apparently it's a known issue, the Pimax tracking algorithm is bad. It needs more than a 5700x3D while Meta have been fine on a lil mobile phone chip since the Quest 1. It's really sad as the image quality is fantastic in this thing. It's very, very clear and sharp while approaching the colours and contrast of an OLED screen. It's a pretty big headset but I find it not too bad comfort wise. I could deal with having a faulty headset but the whole tracking situation renders this as junk. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pimax Crystal Light Prime PCVR Headset - 8K Resolution,QLED Display, Light & Comfortable,High Clarity VR for flight simulator, Compatible with MSFS, iRacing & More, DMAS & Lighthouse Tracking optional - Hikig 2 Set The Desk Mount for The Flight Sim Game Joystick, Throttle and Hotas Systems Compatible with Logitech X56, X52, X52 Pro, Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas,Thrustmaster T.16000M, Thrustmaster TCA - Logitech G X56 H.O.T.A.S Throttle and Joystick Flight Simulator Game Controller, 4 Spring Options, +189 Programmable Controls, RGB Lighting, 2x USB, PC - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/684731342-pimax-crystal-light-partial-payment-version-high-clarity-pc-vr](https://www.desertcart.be/products/684731342-pimax-crystal-light-partial-payment-version-high-clarity-pc-vr) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-28*
